About Me

Born and raised in Norway on our family farm in Rygge. Lived in Beijing for 2 years, and travelled a fair bit.
Studying at Norwegian University of Life Sciences.

Spend most of my free time working for Spire, an environment and development organisation that covers three main areas: climate, food security and trade.
Or various forms of outdoor activities in the forest or mostly the mountains.
I have previously also worked with other organisations, and I have lived with an indigenous group in the Amazon.

Music, Movies, and Books

To me there is so many great bands and artists within so many different genres, varying from jazz to heavy metal. However, there might be one band that has stood out to me, and that is Led Zeppelin.
Favourite movies are the LOTR trilogy, Star Wars Ep. IV-VI, and Inglorious Bastards.
There are countless books worth mentioning. Some of the best books I have read are within the fantasy genre such as LOTR, or within the philosophic genre such as "På Stedet Løp" (by Hessen & Eriksen) or academic such as "Imperialist Canada by Todd Gordon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived with an indigenous tribe deep into the Amazon, what an experience!
